FH in Ohio reports what they call a new HSBC scam: “I have been dealing with HSBC for several months now because of their new scam !!!!!! I was late on a payment several months ago. A payment I thought I mailed in enough time. My loan was defaulted that one month. I had a default balance with a higher interest rate. I have no problem with any of this so far but, here is my problem now. I have, since then, been sending my regular payment plus extra money as well to get my loan down of course. I seem to call HSBC every month to ask why are you not taking my over payment out and posting it to my balence with the higher interest rate even with a letter enclosed to do so.

RT in Maryland said: “Payment mailed 12 days before due date and still got charged a $29 late fee. Here is the kicker.. I live 25 Miles max from the HSBC Processing center!! Called HSBC – HRS and explained the situation but they would not budge on reversing the late fee. Account is by Marlo’s Furniture that was opened almost 4 years ago where I bought furniture using their No Interest for 4 years promo. I have been religiously paying the account for almost 4 years and now they are saying that my 2nd to the last payment is late. I just sent the last payment via certified mail and already contacted the Maryland Attorney General’s Office.”
